“High-level intuition, the ultimate sign of mastery, involves a process that is qualitatively different from rationality, but is even more accurate and perceptive. It accesses deeper parts of reality. It is a highly legitimate type of intelligence, but one that has to be understood in its own right. And in understanding it, we can begin to see that such power is not miraculous, but intrinsically human and accessible to us all.” —Robert Greene, Mastery
Some folks will look at someone who’s exceptionally masterful at something and tell you, “They’re so lucky to be able to do that.”
Or they’ll say, “She was born with those talents.”
The same person will look at the CEO of your company and say, “I wish I could do that, but I’m not a leader.”
They’ll look at an exceptionally fit person and tell you, “It’s genetics.”
They’ll see a great public speaker and say, “You and I couldn’t do that even if we tried.”
👆 This is complete nonsense.

Attaining mastery is possible for EVERYONE.
You’ve just got to actually want it.
You’ve also got to believe it’s possible.
And you absolutely MUST be willing to put in the hard work that mastery demands, regardless of field or industry.
Steps to mastery
Masters have immersed themselves in watching, learning, doing, and creating.
They internalize every part of their journey until they no longer see the parts, but gain an intuitive feel for the whole.
This is not a fast process.
Rather, it happens after they’ve spent tens of THOUSANDS of hours or more in learning and creating.
They’ve altered and reshaped their own brain by making a multitude of connections between different forms of knowledge.
They’ve participated in years of active, engaging learning.
They never stop learning and growing in their Life’s Task.
They began as apprentices, they became actively creative and THEN they achieved mastery.
Actionable insights
If you want to achieve mastery in any field of work, leverage the following key ideas to make it happen:
1. Be in deep + intimate connection with your physical environment. Be in constant awareness of what’s around you. If it helps you on your path to mastery, keep it in your environment. If it doesn’t, remove it.
2. Know your strengths + passions, and work with them effectively. You’ll be spending thousands of hours learning and developing your work. So it’s critical that you enjoy a good chunk of this time, and that you’re able to engage your strengths for success. It also helps to ask yourself this: What do I enjoy so much that I’m even in love with the struggle?
3. You must make physical contact with your work. This active learning enables you to internalize each skill until the actions become an automatic part of your thinking.
4. Remember that your Life’s Task has a life of its own. This occurs when so much learning has been absorbed that the reflection of it becomes an effortless process.
5. Keep the big picture in mind. Use strategy to direct action towards your ultimate goals.
6. Continue to view the world through a variety of perspectives. Never become trapped by only considering your own point of view.
7. Finally, share your knowledge as far and as broadly as you can. With advances in technology, this sharing can constitute even greater achievements by everyone.
